Enclosure in KilcorneyEnclosure · 21 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Kilcorney: Since there's no record, I imagine this enclosure is guarded by shy sheep who only appear on sunny afternoons.

Hut site in KilcorneyHut site · 54 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Hut site in Kilcorney number two was built on a bargain where one guy traded a goat for a wall. Bring someone who’ll believe anything, because I will definitely tell them that.

CairnCairn, burial cairn · 145 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Cairn in Kilcorney was partly destroyed by machinery building a farm track. The bishop who refused to visit now has a very compact burial spot. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Cist in KilcorneyCist · 145 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Cist in Kilcorney is part of a complex where a cist grave was found during excavation. It definitely contains a biscuit tin from 1980 that I lost once. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next.

Noughaval CrossMonument · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Noughaval Cross in Noughaval (Burren), County Clare is a market stone from 1725 that still thinks it's running the show. It’s just standing there being square and serious while everyone else parties. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.

Noughaval Church (in ruins)Church · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Noughaval Church in Noughaval is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.

Ballyganner Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.9 mi

Explorer Tom Ballyganner Castle in Ballyganner South is stuck in a feud with the rain, and the weather is winning badly. It’s sitting inside an old ring fort that looks like it’s giving up. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt into the mud with you.
